Ashes

In the light they both stand
Eyes locked, they hold hands
Till love and death do us part
These words tore them apart
The truth she knows
She trembles to speak these words
By the ocean she stands
She buries his heart in the sand

In the dark they both stand
Eyes shut a change of plans
His face turns pale and cold
She senses that he knows
She lays her head on his chest
Numb, he feels no more

She left that night, never said good bye
The wind took hold, her love grew cold
She left that night never said good bye
The wind took hold the ashes are cold

-solo-

By the ocean she stands
She buries his heart in the sand

She left that night, never said good bye
The wind took hold, her love grew cold
She left that night never said good bye
The wind took hold the ashes are cold
Are cold
Are cold
Are cold
